I hate this game. 5 game losing streak and the 6th game I had to literally carry the game all by myself to win.
Honestly, after these matches I think TSM is beginning to understand how Koreans play. Although they lost a lot, they didnt' come out empty handed. They gained experience and now have a better understanding of a meta beyond their own. Not only that but this weekend will help to show what they're lacking in their play and what cracks need to be filled in their team.
Not the carry we deserved but the carry we needed.
They need to get a new Korean team member to supply the pajeon and kalbi.
It looks like a huge mistake by Blaze trying for the top inhibitor. That one mistake meant 4-6 turrets lost, 1-2 inhibitors lost, like 6 kills to TSM, and very nearly lost the nexus. They came back to win a close fight after that after they were initiated on by Ashe + Nocturne.
Unfortunately, the nexus looks like it's lost for Blaze because big minions are hammering on it and breaking its towers.

Poor Ashe, no one was protecting her, that really cost them the game.
edit: stream down
It's not even that. The team did a poor job of protecting their two big damage dealers: Reginald and Chaox. They just went on their bruisers while Irelia just walked past them and started focusing them. It's just a massive clusterfuck of a fight. blegh.
Is it really their fault though. Irelia is pretty tough to get off your carries with her passive and mobility with Bladestorm.
I wasn't watching the stream so I had no idea what the team comps were.
It's not just Dyrus that should be saying that. It should be EVERYONE on their team.

You know, TSM was really trading blows with Blaze in the botched game 2.
I'm almost certain it won't be allowed again.
I would love nothing more than for TSM to win this.... but having to replay a game is gonna make everyone feel odd, no matter the outcome.
I would love to hear what the deal was. Why did the stream go down? Why did the game have problems? Was it a local tourney client, or was it just tournament draft mode online?
Yeah, Blaze was down to 1 nexus turret.

Super minions pushing on Blaze base. There's no way they could push to win.Aw, azubu had that game, thats sad
Azubu definitely has the edge. Even though they were trading even, Maokai had all the kills which is bad. He scales pretty poorly late game with items. If they can get the kills to Jack and Ambition then they will have a much better standing.
That's dumb.

Realizing you're playing a game =/= not thinking about how you are playing.
The point is to not be rude, inconsiderate or condescending to your teammates if you want them to play well. Only thing I've seen such behaviour encourage is throwing.
HoNGAF/Dota2GAF ribs on each other a lot. People will tease and poke you but it's usually the friendly kind, but even that can be misinterpreted easily I guess.
Yeah, you two and Southern were in that game from what I remember. And one other person besides 2th who's name I can't remember at the moment.
As far as I'm concerned advice is pretty much useless if the person giving it is disrespectful. Some might say that's intentionally gimping yourself but I find the people who give the best advice are usually the most well mannered.

Seems like the internet died at the venue.
Not in that exact time, but in the long run.
I just realized your avatar is Dan[DanDan]. This is great.
My stream is still down, where are you watching?
refresh it. I'm watching from the same place.

hot, steaming, as melted butter slips into the cracks, drizzled with sticky sweet syrup OH GOD
Use the Own3d.org stream.

Please stop. Chaox played terrible games with awful positioning and this game has been over for ages.
First surrender of the tournament? That game was like the revenge of Irelia. I assume MLG is over for the weekend now?
I think Blaze kept Maokai zoom/Ryze flash/Irelia dash diving Ashe when possible. TSM was doing the same thing to Urgot though. Urgot seemed like the weakest link on Blaze that game.

Not protecting Ashe or who? I'm missing all this from work. :/
This is my belief as well. Chaox time and time again started out team fights where he shouldn't have been.
Uh... Chaox had great positioning in nearly almost all of those fights in that second game. Team went out to separate the entire playing field rather than sticking together.
Chaox rarely throws out arrows on his own for far initiates. Regi calls for arrows and just shoots it.

eh i feel those games were the result of a better team comp by blaze.
So many squishies on tsm, and they didnt have enough damage to compensate.
